Old Mahogany Bar History Card

Wilton's Music Hall

This card recounts the history of how Wilton's Music Hall became the Old Mahogany Bar, a Methodist Mission. It explains how Mr and Mrs Reginald Radcliffe and Miss Macpherson, passing by, were so shocked at the 'awful' sights they saw inside that they prayed to God to release the place. The East End Mission are currently the longest tenants of Wilton's, occupying the building 1888-1956.
